Stellar Panelboard Dimming Systems

create a new dimension in lighting control. While lighting systems consume energy, Stellar dimming panels conserve and redirect energy into the atmosphere of your facility. The panel s universal dimmers control incandescent, fluorescent, low-voltage, and cold cathode lighting, as well as ceiling fans. A suite of lighting controllers lets users manage light levels and create fully-automated lighting environments. Overview Photos Typical Applications Restaurants, lounges, clubs Houses of worship Hotels, ballrooms with moving partitions Offices, schools, auditoriums Resorts, country clubs Convention centers, multifunctional facilities, exhibit halls Stellar 24 - interior Stellar 24 - enclosure Features Dimmer Panel Enclosure design allows for surface-mount or recessed installation between 2 x 4 studs, conserves space, and simplifies rough-in Top and bottom openings for feeding loads Tested as a complete system, at full load, prior to shipment Variable-speed cooling fan slows down or stops at low temperatures to extend lifetime Includes three additional circuit breakers for emergency or security lighting Ability to override controls and recall presets or bypass dimmers directly from dimmer panel Compatible with DMX512 control consoles for theater/stage applications UL 508 & 508A compliant 1
